This is the Year 6 only version of my popular Primary Tracking resource. In this pack you will find:
Introduction: Complete instructions for how to use the assessment, tracking and reporting package.
Assessment spreadsheets: Feed in teacher assessment data (using numbers 1-7) for each learning objective (maths, reading, writing and science). An average 'grade' is then generated and all data can be easily be viewed on the 'overview' page for each pupil. The spreadsheet easily allows you to identify both pupil and class weaknesses/strengths and track progress.
Tracking sheets: These allow you to track children's 'grade' over the academic year. Use the overview sheet to feed pupil's names into the appropriate box. This is completed termly so that children's progress can be monitored. Each of the subjects is on a separate page allowing progress (or lack of it) to be evaluated.
Reports: Use the overview sheet to create a numerical style report, where each pupil is given a 'grade' for each strand in maths, reading, writing and science. A simple yet informative method for reporting to parents that takes a fraction of the time that traditional overly wordy reports take (more in line with the reports distributed in secondary education).
This system, plus my foundation subjects tracking system (see link below - 50p only), will be all your school needs for tracking progress in this 'interesting' era of assessment without levels at a fraction of the price that some corporations charge! Please, leave feedback for this amazing, time-saving resource!
